@rsc204 Thank you for the assistance and insight! I'll first try the zoning and if it doesn't help, guess some C or I districts are going bye-bye. I've also figured personally, not sure a hundred per cent, the main cause for the imbalance was the fact I had mostly R$$$ in those cities, the vacant jobs might be for R$$ and R$. Still, odd how those refused to develop nearly at all. Oh well, Cori's No-kickout mod should assist there. Again, thank you for your help.

Thank you for the reply, I'll have to have a read about the Prima Guide at some point, thank you for the link. Here's the city I was referring to, and it turned out there's way more jobs vacant than the aforementioned number. I'd also like to point out the region has two other large city tiles mostly filled and each have the Residential slow growth issue. If you want, I can upload their Census data as well, though I personally suspect similar data.

This has bothered me for eons and finally decided to come to experts to give some insight on what's going on: Residential development in large cities, especially on large tiles, becomes slower than the tectonic plates move. I've checked and it is not a CAP issue, they're usually at 10 - 30 per cent range, got healthcare, parks, schools and there are plenty of jobs available, near on 80 000 C and I jobs combined in one instance. Yet people move in so slowly. Can anyone explain why is that?
